Read through the most famous quotes from Julius Streicher
Streicher in power
In April 1933 after Nazi control of the German state apparatus gave the Gauleiters enormous power Streicher organised a one-day boycott of Jewish businesses which was used as a dress-rehearsal for other anti-Semitic commercial measures. The Weimar habit of following the strictest letter of the law made prosecution for more serious crimes difficult. He further claimed that some of the soldiers also spat at him and forced his mouth open to spit in it.
After the war he was convicted of crimes against humanity and executed. His publishing firm also released three anti-Semitic books for children including the 1938 Der Giftpilz ("The Toadstool" or "The Poison-Mushroom") one of the most widespread pieces of propaganda which purported to warn about insidious dangers Jews posed by using the metaphor of an attractive yet deadly mushroom. Julius Streicher (12 February 1885 – 16 October 1946) was a prominent Nazi prior to World War II.
